      Very interesting.

      (But how did General Loan born in 1930, fight in WW2 and get a distinguished service order from the British? Probably born in 1920??)

      EDIT: No, it appears he was born in 1930. But other articles do not mention anything about WW2 for him. (Poor proofreading from microsoft!)

        There's a documentary about Eddie on YouTube I highly recommend.

        Please love yourself.
